"I've been watching the team from the sidelines and am truly impressed by the hard work and dedication the boys have shown to get this far," Pant stated. "It's unfortunate that rain ended our run, but I am immensely proud of every player. We've built something special this season, and I am confident that we will come back stronger next year, aiming for the title."
Pant's comments highlight the strong bond he feels with the team and his belief in their potential. Despite the disappointment of the premature end to their campaign, his optimism for the future remains high. Pant's support underscores the positive impact Purani Dilli 6 has had this season, both on and off the field.

The season may have ended on a challenging note, but the foundation they have built and the support they continue to receive offer a promising outlook for the future. With Pant's encouragement and their demonstrated resilience, Purani Dilli 6 is well-positioned to return stronger and more determined in the next season of the Delhi Premier League.
